More Bling!

I have been working on this "blingy" bracelet for several days now and finally finished it tonight. It is made following an idea found in "Stringing Beads" by Jean Campbell. It is made primarily from findings. I attached all of the beads to either headpins, lever back earrings, or five hole connectors. I couldn't find some of the findings mentioned in the instructions, so I substituted some butterfly charms (with wrapped loops like the silver pearls) and a couple of dragonfly charms. In the middle I placed a Libra charm. I learned a lot making this bracelet and can't wait to wear it to work tomorrow.

I've seen this piece in person and don't think the photos do it justice. The soft blue and slate grey of the pearls compliment each other beautifully. I never would have put these two colors together. That's why you're the "artistic" chick.

Lovely.
